- Edge computing enables applications and services to be located closer to users and devices, reducing latency and network congestion. This provides for new use cases and improved user experiences.
- The document discusses edge reference architectures including small, medium, and large edge deployments. It also covers considerations for connectivity, compute, storage and management at the edge.
- Openstack is working to develop standards and support edge computing through projects like the Edge Computing Group to help drive open edge infrastructure.
